Import a map
A mapping file can be imported at any time, but be aware that importing data overwrites all existing mappings; you cannot do a partial import. For a successful import, Column A must contain Account Code from the chart of accounts, and Column B must contain Tax Account Code from the tax account.
note
Currently, the import method can only be used to map specific accounts. Conditional mapping and range mapping must be done manually in the Mapping module.
